[PATCH 3.16 010/125] usbcore: dont log on consecutive debounce failures of the same port

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxx>

commit 5ee0f803cc3a0738a63288e4a2f453c85889fbda upstream.

Some laptops have an internal port for a BT device which picks
up noise when the kill switch is used, but not enough to trigger
printk_rlimit(). So we shouldn't log consecutive faults of this kind.
